The reproducibility of coronary stenosis grading in clinical practice using coronary
CT angiography (CCTA) has been modest particularly amongst less experienced readers.

With the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) based coronary segmentation,
there are opportunities to support improvements in the reproducibility of stenosis
assessment.

In this study, we assessed the performance an AI-based algorithm with analyst input
in evaluation of coronary luminal stenosis by comparing its agreement and reproducibility
to those of experienced CCTA readers.To read this article in full you will need to make a payment
